Product Description

Borsalino Quenca Fino Quality Panama Hat is a bleached panama hat hand-woven in Ecuador. The hat was manufactured in Italy by the world-famous hat maker, Borsalino. The brim width on this hat is 2 7/8". This hat has a Black Hat Band as shown in the picture. There is a full interior grosgrain sweatband. DelMonico Hatter also offers this hat with a 2 1/2" brim.

I wouldn't be caught in the summer sun without it! It keeps the sun off of my bald spot; the wide brim keeps the sun out of my eyes and off of my ears. Its light color and light weight make it cool to wear. Looks good with anything from khaki slacks and a button-down shirt to blazer and slacks to seersucker suit with two-tone wingtips. On the down side, the wide brim makes it difficult to manage on windy day.

Comments about Borsalino Quenca Fino Panama Hat - Wide Brim:

I wear it from May to September for dressy or dressy casual, the crowning touch to a navy blue blazer and gray or khaki trousers.
It's light, breathable, keeps the sun off my bald spot and ears and out of my eyes.

Comments about Borsalino Quenca Fino Panama Hat - Wide Brim:

Arrived neatly packed in Del Monico hat box. Gave me a sense that the hat was well protected on it's long voyage to Singapore. It's my irst panama ever purchased and I'm growing into it with every wear. Wished I gotten a size 56 instead of 57. Already requested for reducing tape but it's *yet to arrive*. Next purchase will be a felt Borsalino definitely!

Comments about Borsalino Quenca Fino Panama Hat - Wide Brim:

I bought this hat for my husband. He has always been a hat wearer, Western style, panamas, etc. While in Italy in the fall, we stopped at a Borsalino shop in Florence and he tried on hats & liked this one the most. He ended up not buying it so this hat became his Christmas present from me. He wears this hat with a beautiful Hawaiian feather lei made from blue pheasant feathers. Absolutely gorgeous!

Comments about Borsalino Quenca Fino Panama Hat - Wide Brim:

Protection from the sun; the weave was excellent (I have had weave complaints before). However, the inner-hat band failed to hold and slipps so that it shows.
Believe the maker Borsalino could pay more attention to the inner-hat band. Thanks for asking.

Merchant response:
Thank you for your review. Borsalino does make a high quality product, but as an additional assurance to our customers, all Borsalino hats are inspected by DelMonico Hatter staff when they are received from the factory. They are also inspected just prior to being shipped. However, interior sweatband slippage is not something that we have encountered before, and so it could have been something that we did not detect during our quality inspections - thank you for bringing this to our attention.

Comments about Borsalino Quenca Fino Panama Hat - Wide Brim:

This is a beautiful, elegant, stylish Panama hat. It's light weight and breathable. It looks great with jeans or slacks, a summer shirt, a light weight sweater, or a summer sport jacket. I love it! How long it will last remains to be seen; it seems a bit fragile--as I said, "light weight." It's not crushable. I will try to be careful with it. (Re size: I have other Borsalino hats, and this one seems just a tad larger than my felt hats of the same size. DelMonico sent some sizing strips to put in the hat band and all is well.)

Every time I wear the hat someone stops me and asks where did I get such a wonderful hat , I respond Italy the home of everything great. I put on my Ray-Bands and hat and I am ready for any thing . I get complements every time I put it on. My wife wants to know if there is one for a woman!
